Psychedelic / progressive / blues rock band from New York, USA. The band was managed by Nick and Arnie Ungano, and indeed shared rosters with many popular big-name bands at Ungano's under the moniker "Creedmoor State." They were signed to Capitol Records and became "Plum Nelly" (named after the Booker T & The MG's song "Plum Nellie"). The band recorded their sole album, Deceptive Lines, at Capitol East from November through December 1970 with producer Ken Cooper. After touring the US, the band relocated to Los Angeles, California in 1974, replacing bassist Bob Feit with John Murphy and vocalist Ric Prince with Kenny Kerr. They remained there until their disbandment in 1976.
